This deeply moving historical drama tells the true story of Mamie Till-Mobley, the mother of Emmett Till, whose brutal lynching in Mississippi in 1955 became a turning point in the civil rights movement. The film follows Mamie’s heartbreaking journey from private grief to public courage, as she insists on showing the world what was done to her son. Anchored by a powerful performance from Danielle Deadwyler, Till is not just a story of loss, but also of resilience, justice, and a mother’s unwavering love that helped ignite lasting change.
